Published online at www.m.elewa.org/journals/ on 31st January 2021 https://doi.org/10.35759/JABs.157.10 ABSTRACT Objective: The leaf-roller caterpillar Haritalodes (=Syllepte) derogata (Fabricius, 1775) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) induces high yield losses by damaging cotton leaves and reducing the photosynthetic activity of the plant. Laboratory bioassays were carried to evaluate the effect of Beauveria bassiana on the survival of H. derogata larvae. Methodology and results: In the first trial, screening of thirteen B. bassiana isolates was performed on third larval instars at 107 conidia.mL-1. In the second trial, effects of five concentrations (105 to 109 conidia.mL-1) of the three best isolates of the fungus were tested. Conidia suspension was applied on each larva topically. Germination rates of conidia used varied between 90.2% to 95.7%, 24 hours after incubation. Five isolates were found to be the most promising namely Bb116, Bb3, Bb11, Bb6 and Bb115. In the second bioassay, caterpillar mortality increased with fungal concentration. Lethal Concentration (LC50) was estimated to 1.18x1015 conidia.mL-1, 1.75x1013 conidia.mL-1, 1.75x1013 conidia.mL-1, 9 days after inoculation for Bb3, Bb11 and Bb115, respectively. Conclusion and application of results: The use of B. bassiana as a biopesticide against H. derogata could be a good alternative method to control the pest. It is an environmentally friendly method with less side effects compared to the application of synthetic pesticides on cotton. This method could be tested in future station and field experiments.

INTRODUCTION Cotton crop is the first cash crop of Benin that in the value chain and insect resistance mainly of contributes up to 80% to official export earnings and Lepidopteran species became a major issue to be 13% to GDP (Great Development Product) (Afouda solved for boosting cotton production in Benin. et al., 2013). In 2018-2019 season, the recorded Among these caterpillars of cotton, H. derogata production was 700,000 TM ranking Benin as the (Fabricius, 1775) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) largest producer in West Africa (Tonavoh, 2019). inducing up to 20-60% of cotton yield loss (Silvie, This increase in cotton production is related to the 1993). Thus, this phyllophagous could alter the expansion of cultivated areas and the use of new photosynthetic activity of the plant. In order to cotton varieties but not to an increase in yield (CRA- economically and ecologically manage cotton insect CF 2018). Yield is heavily limited by pressure from pests, biological control remains an attractive insect pests. In West Africa, insect pests become a option. This control option includes the use of major constraint on increasing cotton production natural enemies of target insect pest species. (Brevault et al., 2017). Indeed, cotton is the one of Several studies reported various natural enemies the most damaged crops with more than 1300 (parasitoids and pathogens) of H. derogata species of insect pests, heavily limiting its (Gahramanova et al., 2020). In this perspective, the productivity (UNCTAD, 2008 cited by Douro entomopathogen Beauveria bassiana (Bals.-Criv.) Kpindou et al., 2013). Among these, phyllophagous Vuill., 1912, is a promising candidate. Different and carpophagous caterpillars are the most isolates were identified infecting a wide range of destructive pests of cotton in Benin. There are two insects (707 species belong to 15 orders) and mites main groups of caterpillar pests according to their (13 species) (Zimmerman 2007; Lambert 2010). feeding preferences (Héma et al., 2009). The first The use of B. bassiana is an environmentally group consisted of defoliators such as the leaf-roller friendly control mean and harmless to human health caterpillar Haritalodes (=Syllepte) derogate F. compared to chemical pesticides (Althouse et al., (Crambidae)), the leaf-eating noctuids Anomis flava 1997; Faria and Wraight, 2001). Fungus kills both F. and Spodoptera littoralis (Boisduval). On the susceptible adult and immature stages (eggs, other hand the second group includes bollworms or larvae) causing the so-called ‘’white muscardine’’ fruit-feeders namely the old world bollworm disease by a simple contact. Pest mortality may Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner), the red bollworm occur with the conidia development process and Diparopsis watersi Rothschild and the spiny dead host becomes a new source of contamination. bollworms Earias insulana (Boisduval) and Earias Four steps are known for the infection of the fungus biplaga (Walker) which feed on fruiting organs namely adhesion, germination and differentiation, (squares, flowers, bolls) (Silvie et al., 2013). penetration, and dissemination within the host and Expansion of cultivated area led to higher to another host (Dannon et al., 2020). It is not consumption of chemical pesticides in order to theoretically possible for insects to develop overcome insect pests damage (Westerberg, 2017). resistance to B. bassiana because the fungus The side effects of chemical insecticide misuses simultaneously uses several modes of action such included the contamination of cotton production as infection by conidia and toxins (Mascarin and area, human hazards (frequent pesticide poisoning, Jaronski, 2016) and as a living organism, it can skin and stomach irritation), insect pest resurgence adapt to various host changes (Sabbahi, 2008). The and resistance, environmental pollution (Lawani et present study was designed to assess the al., 2017; Djihinto et al., 2016; Djihinto et al., 2009). susceptibility of H. derogata to various B. bassiana Cotton is an income generating for all stakeholders isolates under laboratory conditions. 16255 Dannon et al., J.

MATERIALS AND METHODS Insects: Larvae of H. derogata were collected during the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), period of 12 to 15 October 2017 on untreated cotton Benin station. They were fed using untreated cotton plants samples at the experimental site of the agricultural leaves. The first generation was used in the different research center, cotton and fiber (CRA-CF), in two bioassays.

Co. Ltd., Nonsan 32923, Korea 2The Institute for Conservation of Wild Species, Daejeon 34704, Korea 3National Institute of Ecology, Seocheon 33657, Korea ABSTRACT We surveyed the biodiversity of lepidopterous insects in Jindo Island using UV bucket trap in July 2016 to determine the relationship between surrounding environment and ecosystem in order to contribute to biodiversity conservation and management of coastal islands in Korea. Based on our survey results, a total of 262 lepidopterous insect species in 16 families were collected from Jindo Island. Members belonging to families Noctuidae and Geometridae made up approximately half of the total species (86 species [32.82%] in Noctuidae and 44 species [16.79] in Geometridae). There were 29 species (11.07%) belonging to Crambidae and 28 species (10.69%) belonging to Pyralidae. As a result of all collections based on previous literature and this study, a total of 730 species belonging to 34 families were collected from Jindo Island, including 33 protected species, 242 species (33.15%) belonging to Noctuidae (the most abundant), 124 species (16.99%) belonging to Geometridae, 79 species (10.82%) belonging to Crambidae, and 65 species (8.90%) belonging to Pyralidae. The most frequently collected species was Lamoria glaucalis in this syudy. Our results on the diversity of lepidopterous insects will provide basic information for future investigation on diverse changes in the ecosystem of Jindo Island, Korea.

Briceño1, José Clavijo Albertos2 y Francisco Díaz1 RESUMEN Con el propósito de aportar información al conocimiento de las relaciones entre hospederos y enemigos naturales de larvas de lepidópteros encontradas en ecosistemas naturales, se realizaron estudios de campo para determinar los parasitoides de Syllepte sp. (cercana a S. imbroglialis) Dyar 1914 (Lepidoptera: Crambidae: Spilomelinae), un insecto que ataca plantas de mora silvestre (Rubus floribundus). Las larvas de este insecto fueron colectadas en cuatro localidades de los estados Lara, Trujillo y Yaracuy en Venezuela, entre los años 2001 y 2002, llevadas al laboratorio para su cría hasta la obtención de los adultos y sus posibles parasitoides. Del material colectado, se obtuvieron parasitoides de los géneros Apanteles, Glyptapanteles y Meteorus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), Eiphosoma (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) y Euplectrus (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae).

Spilomelinae and Pyraustinae form a species-rich monophylum of Crambidae (snout moths). Morphological distinction of the two groups has been diffcult in the past, and the morphologically heterogenous Spilomelinae has not been broadly accepted as a natural group due to the lack of convincing apomorphies.
